Will Five Justices Give One Man Control of US Immigration Law?

President Barack Obama told the truth — perhaps by accident — when he spoke last November at a Chicago community center.

Hecklers shouted at him for not doing enough, in their view, to stop deportations. He responded by defending his new policy.

“I understand you may disagree. But we’ve got to be able to talk honestly about these issues. All right?” said Obama, according to the White House transcript.

“Now, you’re absolutely right that there have been significant numbers of deportations. That’s true,” he said. “But what you’re not paying attention to is the fact that I just took action to change the law.”

Yes, Obama put it in the first-person singular: ‘I just took action to change the law.”

Global Warming is one of those topics which can start a bar fight, in the wrong bar that is, but why? Starting in the 1970’s, the left began indoctrination of the children, only then it was the coming “Ice Age” then it became Global Warming and since that didn’t work as planned, Climate Change is the new epithet for what is normally called weather. Yes, weather changes as do temperatures, the Great Lakes were once glaciers!

How Climate Change Is About Changing Society Not the Environment

When Barack Obama rejected the Keystone XL Pipeline, in his statement was an eye-opener.

Third: Shipping dirtier crude oil into our country would not increase America’s energy security. What has increased America’s energy security is our strategy over the past several years to reduce our reliance on dirty fossil fuels from unstable parts of the world. Three years ago, I set a goal to cut our oil imports in half by 2020. Between producing more oil here at home, and using less oil throughout our economy, we met that goal last year — five years early. In fact, for the first time in two decades, the United States of America now produces more oil than we buy from other countries.

Now, the truth is, the United States will continue to rely on oil and gas as we transition — as we must transition — to a clean energy economy. That transition will take some time. But it’s also going more quickly than many anticipated. Think about it. Since I took office, we’ve doubled the distance our cars will go on a gallon of gas by 2025; tripled the power we generate from the wind; multiplied the power we generate from the sun 20 times over. Our biggest and most successful businesses are going all-in on clean energy. And thanks in part to the investments we’ve made, there are already parts of America where clean power from the wind or the sun is finally cheaper than dirtier, conventional power.

It wasn’t environmental issues at all that resulted in the rejection of Keystone, rather it was a decision to force a societal and economic change upon the United States. (Read More)

One would think it is obvious that more bad guys need to be locked up, and for much longer terms and no plea deals, but our president decided to let them loose? What is he going to do during that time when presidents always pardon people, release Manson?

Local sheriffs across America are voicing concern for the safety of the citizens they’ve sworn to protect after the biggest one-time release of federal inmates in U.S. history — though advocates of criminal justice reform maintain the release is being handled responsibly.

The 6,112 inmates were released from federal prison at the beginning of November in response to a decision by the U.S. Sentencing Commission to reduce sentences for most drug trafficking offenses and apply them retroactively. It coincides with a broader and bipartisan push for rethinking federal sentencing.

But the mass release raises immediate practical questions about how the ex-inmates can adjust.

“There’s no transition here, there’s no safety net. This is the biggest sham they are trying to sell the American people,” Sheriff Paul Babeu of Arizona’s Pinal County told FoxNews.com.

“On average these criminals have been in federal prison for nine years — you don’t have to be a sheriff to realize that a felon after nine years in jail isn’t going to be adding value to the community. A third are illegals and felons so they can’t work. What do we think they are going to do?” said Babeu, also a congressional candidate.

The government is in fact trying to guide the transition for many. The Justice Department says 77 percent of exiting inmates are already in half-way houses or home confinement.

But local law enforcement officers have deep reservations, as the initiative ramps up quickly.

The November inmates are the first of approximately 46,000 who may have their cases reviewed. Of those released in the first round, the Department of Justice says 1,764 were to be turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) for deportation proceedings.

Sheriffs on the border front-lines were skeptical of the deportation claim.

“The promise is they’re going to be turned over to ICE and deported. Anyone who thinks there’s any likelihood of them leaving the U.S. … think again,” Babeu said, before saying the president should be held responsible for any crimes committed by those released.

Other sheriffs also challenged the claim that those being released are not a risk to communities.

“If [the Obama administration is] not capable of making honest and prudent decisions in securing our borders, how can we trust them to make the right decision on the release of prisoners who may return to a life of crime?” Sheriff Harold Eavenson of Rockwall County, Texas, told FoxNews.com.

‘I’d be amazed if the 6,000 … being released are non-violent.’

While the average number of inmates being released to any one state is 80, Texas is slated to receive 597 inmates.

The inmates in question had been incarcerated on drug offenses, but the severity of the cases ranged broadly. An Associated Press review last month found while many were low-level drug dealers, some had prior convictions for robbery or were involved in moving serious drugs like cocaine and heroin. WGME in Maine also reported that the group includes a former “drug kingpin” previously listed as one of “America’s Most Wanted,” after his 20-year sentence was reduced.

“For them to tell me or tell citizens that they’re going to do a good job and these inmates are non-violent, when in many instances drug crimes, drug purchasing, drug trafficking are related to other, violent crimes – I’d be amazed if the 6,000 … being released are non-violent,” Eavenson said.

Michele Bachmann has it right. Forget about politics for a moment. What are we all doing to “get right?” Electing candidates is simple in comparison to helping our friends, family, and neighbors get to know Jesus!

There are those who think they are ok just because they are nice people! Others who are too “enlightened” to believe in what they feel are myths; sadly all we can do is pray for them, show them Jesus’ love, and invite them to church.

Let’s assume all the negative and terrible things we fear from various directions; be it ISIS, illegal aliens, evil presidents, or any other monster, what is the answer? Jesus!

Speaking about her trip to Israel and current world events, former Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) said “we’re seeing the fulfillment of scripture right in front of our eyes,” and Christians must do all they can to “share Jesus Christ with everyone” because “He’s coming soon.”

Rep. Bachmann made her remarks from Israel during a Nov. 4 radio interview with Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, the host of “Washington Watch with Tony Perkins.”

“Almost every article in the paper” concerns Israel and Middle East events “and it ties with so much biblical prophecy,” said Bachmann. “This week really was about biblical prophecy in many ways.”

“And we’re seeing as events are speeding up,” she said, “events are speeding up so quickly right now, and we see how relevant the Bible is, and we’re reading our newspaper at the same time we’re learning about these biblical events.”

“It’s literally day by day by day, we’re seeing the fulfillment of scripture right in front of our eyes, even while we’re on the ground,” said Bachmann.

She continued, “We recognize the shortness of the hour, and that’s why we as a remnant want to be faithful in these days and do what it is that the Holy Spirit is speaking to each one of us, to be faithful in the Kingdom and to help bring in as many as we can — even among the Jews — share Jesus Christ with everyone that we possibly can because, again, He’s coming soon.”

Michele Bachmann served four terms in the U.S. House of Representatives (2007-2015) and was a contender for the Republican nomination for president in 2012. She also served in the Minnesota Senate from 2001 to 2003.

This article brings up all sorts of terrible thoughts of retribution or retaliation, not by the citizens living there, nor the Muslim invaders, but by the federal government. Since the current president and Hillary Clinton both want to take guns away, who would protect them? One could write potential nightmares all day long, what can be done? How exactly does any town or city protect itself? Forget about the regular illegal aliens, what about the legal invaders?

One U.S. state draws line in sand against Islamization

A third South Carolina county has barred the door to any Third World refugees being resettled in their community and at least two others are considering the same move.

The Berkeley County Council unanimously passed a resolution Monday that bars any refugee funds from flowing into that county.

The resolution calls for “all South Carolina public officials to immediately cease and desist” from helping to resettle Middle Eastern refugees anywhere in the state until the legislature can act on the issue and pass legislation reflecting the will of the people.

Anderson and Pickens counties already passed similar resolutions.

Two more counties – Greenville and York – are expected to vote soon on similar resolutions.

South Carolina is the only state that gives local governments the option of rejecting, not necessarily the refugees, but the state and federal tax dollars that flow to their aid when they are resettled in a city.

The U.S. takes in 70,000 refugees per year for many years and President Obama has said he will up that to 85,000 in fiscal 2016 and 100,000 in 2017. These refugees are hand-selected by the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres. The majority come from Muslim populations in Iraq, Iran, Syria, Afghanistan, Burma, Democratic Republic of Congo and Somalia although others include Hindus from Bhutan and a small number of Christians and Buddhists.

Obama’s Syrian refugees have proven most controversial, because of the presence of a large jihadist army in that country affiliated with the Islamic State, al-Nusra Front and al-Qaida. He has agreed to accept at least 10,000 Syrians for permanent resettlement in more than 180 U.S. cities and towns in fiscal 2016, with the promise of many more in 2017.
